What do you think this poem is about?

Flora & Fauna

The Age old Earth
being asked
a question of query
about life on it
that prevails
in multiplicity -
plants in plenty or
faunas in forests;
whom does it like?

A bright smile of her
covered as a shield
on its flora & fauna
to look them charmed
and reasonably secured,
left me ignoble behind.

    Who knows The Creator’s [Mother Earth] Wish …the Prime Will …flora and fauna are diverse and variegate…Ek Ham Bahu Syham [I’m One want to be Many] –Veda…

    Scientists describe as Evolution [Darwin] but the Creator behind this wondrous craftsmanship…theory of Evolution may be scientific overgeneralization as aptly you cede, ‘…left me ignoble behind. ‘

    She [Prakiti the Creator, Dynamic…. As Brahman -Purusha is Static] as Hindu scripture endorses…

    Thanks for such a beautiful poem with blend and flavor and fervor of Hindu religion…but subsubtly…
